Once again we present a coveted Golden Fleece Award to our pals at the National Science Foundation (NSF), which awarded $202,000 to two professors to solve a question that troubles us all: “Why Is Wikipedia Sexist?”

NSF bureaucrats demand to know: “… an emerging body of research indicates that Wikipedia suffers from systematic gender bias with respect to both contributors and content…How and why is this bias produced?”

Here’s one thing you can count on: the “emerging body of research” that uncovered this existential outrage was paid for by government loonies wasting your money.
